TheStreetBullFinderAbstract and few thoughts
Deciding what investing strategy to choose, type of analyses to perform and what securities to buy is not an easy topic and almost anybody you ask would have it's own opinion. It's more of a "religion" than a science... Few things however, are obvious:
1. Regardless whether you are short, medium or long term investor, if you are committing money or capital you expect to gain profitable returns. Since every investment comes with some risk of loss, you need to pay particular attention to protecting your principal... after all, you need "chips" to stay in the "game".
2. Once you have available money to invest, you need to deal with: What, Why, and When to buy. No matter what you decide to buy, a sound recipe (with it's rules) of selection and elimination process has to be in place. How else would you repeat your success and avoid disappointments?

"The individual investor should act consistently as an investor and not as a speculator. This means.. that he should be able to justify every purchase he makes and each price he pays by impersonal, objective reasoning that satisfies him that he is getting more than his money's worth for his purchase."

"It has been my experience that competency in mathematics, both in numerical manipulations and in understanding its conceptual foundations, enhances a person's ability to handle the more ambiguous and qualitative relationships that dominate our day-to-day financial decision-making."

"When I'm bearish and I sell a stock, each sale must be at a lower level than the previous sale. When I am buying, the reverse is true. I must buy on a rising scale. I don’t buy long stocks on a scale down, I buy on a scale up."
~Jesse Livermore
